IIoT Platform for Fume Extraction and Dust Collection Delivers Cleaner Air for Welding

The next-generation FMC Dust Collector from Nederman Americas (Charlotte, NC) is ideal for safely handling fume and dust associated with multi-source metal fabrication processes and features:

• A proprietary cartridge filter design, including nanofiber filter media.
• Easy filter maintenance.
• An enhanced cleaning system that increases system capacity, decreases emissions and reduces operational costs.
• EN 60335-2-69 Dust Class M and ASHRAE 52.2-MERV 15 classifications.
• Industry 4.0-ready smart components and controls capable of monitoring the collector performance through Insight industrial filtration monitoring technology, a cloud-based, filtration-specific IIoT solution.

Nederman also provides portable and compact fume, dust extractors and extraction arms in numerous sizes and styles that are specially designed for single arc or flexible workstation system environments with heavy smoke, fumes and dust in shops of all sizes. The portable FilterBox weld fume collector has been upgraded with new nanofiber filter media technology that surface-loads dust and smoke more efficiently for higher overall production efficiency through improved cleaning, maintenance and filter life. The FlexPAK hi-vacuum dust collection system is suitable for on-torch fume extraction, machine tools, composite, metalworking and combustible dust applications. FlexPak is available with sensor packages and controls to support IIoT user needs through Insight, which provides manufacturers with a view of their air filtration system performance in real-time. In addition to a robust dashboard providing visualization of key system metrics, Insight features auto-generated alerts and notifications that bring attention to system anomalies before they disrupt manufacturing processes, enabling shops to address root causes and establish maintenance programs.
